I am personally wondering, if they're going to implement the STOCK act or if it'll be water under the bridge again, or better yet, they do it during Trump in office for brownie points then never again and act like the Republicans stopped them. - https://www.npr.org/2025/09/03/nx-s1-5485340/congress-stock-trading-bill

I have no faith in them, but it was to stop the bleeding, we need to move past two parties and I do agree with that even if I think all the people typing the whataboutisms and how they've seen this before are cowards. You want to complain, give me ideas to fix our shithole instead.

What are the better options, I use DDG for reference. Curious if there is a go too. Haven't touched Google in years for a search. Do occasionally use their reverse image search no that I think about it.

How about calling Annie Andrews a trans slur, I'm so happy they got fucked last night. I hope they keep getting fucked. I don't want that high road bullshit, make it as difficult as humanly possible for them and then rip them apart in the next election. Make it impossible for the GOP to survive, reform them through force.

STOP! I can only get so erect!

Well said and fully agreed. When the means to have discussion are taken away that too is a tool used against the people. That's why they're turning to surveillance as much as they have. It has been a wonderful weapon to cull this exact type of talk.

I think it'll just have to get a whole lot worse before we'll be worrying about this stage of things. It's just odd, watching it and seeing news like this become just background noise for so many people.

Almost like it doesn't even matter that rights are being stripped away, right in front of people and seemingly so few care... but maybe that's not fully right either. So few people don't have the time to care whether by design or not. And like you say, it feels like you're stuck, watching. A prison, oddly enough. I mean I'm not starving to death or something like that, but it feels awful with seemingly no light at the end of the long narrow tunnel. Waiting for a cave-in to breathe gasps of different air into the stale damp hole we call home.

I don't know, maybe I'm just complaining too much.

You're right. No quip. You're correct. But I, too am a coward. I'm not a soldier and my hands shake in intense situations - I have many excuses to give but no action to add.

Yeah, exactly. It's why places like New York or LA can have these amazing and powerful protests vs where I live, cannot (deep red). It's like a different country between state lines and I mean vastly different from one place to another.

Realistically what I see happening is our nation fracturing. I don't think it'll happen in the next ten years but thirty or even fifty, I believe we'll see states secede from the states. If things continue this way then the American experiment has failed. We had a good run but we're on the way out the door which might be a good thing.

I don't know. I just know I wish I could change it. Wish I had more power to stop this. It's like I'm watching the world as I knew it literally decay but only for us down in the 80% of the K-shaped economy - which I am. When you elect a man like Trump, expect a man like Trump. He only cares for himself and the rich - and it's not cause he likes them of course. It's business. Why people thought a business man would be good politics is beyond me.

Who knows might just be in an echo chamber but it certainly seems like we're going backwards globally not just in America either and people keep trying to admonish the fact their politicians are also in the cabal of this evil.

You're correct; Which leads me to another point I'd like to make.

People that blame Americans for not doing 'enough' my response to them is to look around you. These panopticon devices are being sold in your country as well, we're all getting fucked over by the same so-called elites that lord over us and have been doing that since the dawn of humanity when they realized they can pit us against one another. I'm so sick of that narrative I am not happy with this world and what's going on in it even slightly.

It makes me violently ill to think THIS is the best humans are capable of and now the exploitation of everything - say I create a miracle cure-all nowadays. My days are numbered at best because now it's not in the interests of the elites to have that.

I didn't want to be believe that, that the world was so sickly like this, to be that pessimistic about it all, but looking around for even a moment you can see how far we've fallen as a species for total domination of the people these men and women view as beneath them. It's driving me up the wall. I'll actually protest instead of typing because nothing is going to get done otherwise - but protesting without violence is not going to solve this shit even slightly.

I can only do what I can where I am - which to be honest isn't a lot. Economically I am not even 1/1000000 a grain of sand in comparison to the enemy but we are the sand of the Earth and we fucking outnumber them.

What are we doing. How do we get the ball rolling something needs to be done GLOBALLY not just limited to one location or country, we have a genuine stain a glut of inhumane monsters that rule over us literally in the Epstein files doing the most heinous shit we consider to be the most egregious things one can do on this Earth and we're just going to fucking take it? I am losing my fucking mind. Like, what is this. Man.

EDIT: Formatting. I know this is a long text. TL:DR. I'm not happy.

You know what's crazy to me - this used to be the crazy guy under the bridge type of shit. Secondly, it's not the first company that's done this now. LG. Why aren't these people being raked on the coals. Don't answer that I already know. My real question is why aren't we bringing out guillotines and removing the scum from our planet. There are obviously no fucking rules or law of man on this Earth any longer.

I think they're so excited cause it's the first time something they unveiled (albeit, useless) didn't blowup or fail on a showcase. Big win for Tesla! The curtain didn't reveal the Wizard of Oz this time!

I had a boss say the line 'we're a family here' and I could not contain myself. I laughed so hard. He ended leaving for another job that paid more so who's laughing now. He had literally no idea what my job title was or my role. We were a department of four. That guy was fucking awesome.
